BSOD 0X0000001A and Memtest

[rogerlebo]

Hi!

Around 5 times a day, I get BSOD STOP 0x0000001A with RC1 32-bits.
In "Problem Reports ans Solutions", the solution is available and this is :

Help Microsoft test the Windows Memory Diagnostic

I press "Restart now and run the tool (recommended)".

The system reboots and Memtest is supposed to be executed.

But, I get this message :

File : \boot\memtest.exe
Status : 0xc000000e
Info : The selected entry could not be loaded because the application is
missing or corrupt

and no Memtest is done.
So, nothing is reported to Microsoft.
I look in my C: drive and the directory Boot is there and the program
Memtest.exe is in this directory.
And its size is the same as the one on the install DVD.

So, I do not understand why Memtest.exe is not executed.

Did anybody get the same problem?

Merci beaucoup! Roger

Well... you're getting a RAM BSOD... maybe memtest cannot load because of
your RAM error. And... Memtest could be sitting on a bad cluster on your
hard disk. Long shot... but possible. You could try a chkdsk /f. But I would
lean more toward the first statement.
